It was supposed to be business

New York, I’ve been thinking about us…

Crossroads is a well-known second-hand store here

Crossroads is a well-known second-hand store here in NYC. From casual and trendy wear to formal attire, you will find a diverse selection of items for all occasions and budgets!

One of the things that I love about Crossroads is how well-organized it is! It’s so easy to browse and everything is always in excellent condition - I found items with tags a lot of times! Besides clothing like dresses, pants and tops, you will also find activewear, shoes, and cute bags. The selection of denim pants is neat!

Price range $8 - $35 for the majority of the items!

📍 24 W 26th St

🇧🇷 Crossroads é um brechó bem conhecido em NYC. De roupas casuais e estilosas até algumas mais chiques, você encontra uma seleção de peças para todos os gostos e bolsos.

O que mais gosto é como é organizado! É muito fácil garimpar. Tudo em excelente estado e às vezes até com etiqueta. Tem vestidos, calças, shorts, tops, calçados, bolsas…

A maioria dos itens que vi estavam entre $8 e $35!

PS: não é brechó pra encontrar itens de luxo.

📍 24 W 26th St

@twentythreegrand is the new restaurant at @Modern

@twentythreegrand is the new restaurant at @ModernHausSoHo (where Veranda used to be located). I was already familiar with the environment - it's so gorgeous! Love the glass roof.

The place offers a menu featuring global flavors with Mediterranean touches.

Here are our favorites:

- The Zucchini Tower and the Truffle Pizette are perfect for sharing
- The Beef bolognese Cavatelli was absolutely delicious
- Flourless Chocolate Cake tasted like a mousse and the Frozen Berries with melted white chocolate sauce was such a simple but yet delicious dessert!

🇧🇷 O @twentythreegrand é o novo restaurante no @ModernHausSoHo (onde ficava o Veranda). Já conhecia o ambiente - que é lindão, adoro o teto de video.

O lugar tem um menu com sabores globais e toque mediterrâneo.

Aqui vão os nossos favoritos:

- Zucchini Tower e a Truffle Pizette são ótimos para dividir.
- A massa Cavatelli com bife bolonhesa estava simplesmente sensacional.
- O Flourless Chocolate Cake parecia uma mousse e as Frozen Berries (com chocolate branco derretido) estava fantástica, uma sobremesa simples mas deliciosa!

Dinner at @thepressclubgrill - a restaurant at @Ma

Dinner at @thepressclubgrill - a restaurant at @MartiniqueNYC

This restaurant opened around 3 months ago and it's such a great addition to the Herald Square area - it can be complicated to find great restaurants there besides K-town.

The restaurant has a Mad Men vibe and it is inspired by the culture of NYC in the 1950s and 1960s - the environment is cozy and chic.

We tried a lot of dishes: oysters were so fresh, Crab Rangoon was so delicious! The ravioli was special, melting. And it was our first time trying Beef Wellington - they serve it for two - it was so delicious. The truffle sauce was a plus and the Crab ‘Rice-A-Roni’ was a perfect side. For dessert, we had Cherries Jubilee for Two, with chocolate, cherries and ice cream.

@thepressclubgrill is open for lunch, dinner and brunch - they have a lunch special for $19,69 from Monday to Friday!

🇧🇷 Jantar no @thepressclubgrill - um restaurante no @MartiniqueNYC

Esse restaurante abriu faz uns 3 meses e eu acho que é uma boa pedida pra região de Herald Square - acho complicado encontrar bons restaurantes por ali além de K-town.

O local tem uma vibe de Mad Men e é inspirado pela cultura de NYC dos anos 50 e 60. O ambiente é bem legal e aconchegante.

Provamos vários pratos: as ostras eram muito frescas, e o Crab Rangoon estava delicioso. O ravioli estava se desmanchando de tão bom! E foi nossa primeira vez provando o tal Beef Wellington - eles têm uma porção pra duas pessoas, com um molho trufado especial. E pra acompanhar, Crab ‘Rice-A-Roni’ , um arroz com caranguejo que meu deooosssss. Pra sobremesa, provamos a Cherries Jubilee for Two (pra duas pessoas), com cerejas, sorvete e chocolate.

@thepressclubgrill abre pra almoço, jantar e brunch - inclusive tem um deal especial de segunda a sexta, almoço por $19,69

💇‍♀️New haircut & more about my hair grow

💇‍♀️New haircut & more about my hair growth journey!

👱‍♀️Got a new haircut last week with @danidaninyc - and also new highlights. She has been taking care of my hair for years and now she is working at Maria Bonita salon as well.

💇‍♀️Your girl got some curtain bangs - I've been thinking about it for months and I'm so glad I did. I was never afraid of changing my haircut and it has been fun trying new hairstyles.

👱‍♀️I've never had so much hair in my life - thanks to Vegamour! I decided to give it a try after seeing @marcellemazzini amazing results.

👱‍♀️I started to use this serum in August and, since then, I got 3 haircuts (one in February with @filipibolchevi - he is also amazing!) and let me tell you, my hair doesn't grow that fast, so for me, these results were amazing.

💇‍♀️This is not a sponsored post - it could be, because I absolutely love this product. But, if you wanna try, please use my link (it's linked on my Beauty highlights).

🇧🇷Novo corte e mais sobre o meu cabelo

💇‍♀️Cortei o cabelo semana passada com a @danidaninyc - e refiz as luzes. Faço cabelo com ela há anos - e agora ela atende em Manhattan também, no Maria Bonita.

👱‍♀️ And... tenho franja! Fiz as curtain bangs - estava querendo há meses, e tô feliz que deixei o medinho de lado, sou zero apegada com cabelo e amando esse novo visu.

💇‍♀️ Nunca tive tanto cabelo como agora - graças ao Vegamour (podem perguntar pra Dani, ela conhece meu cabelo e inclusive conversamos sobre isso). Decidi testar depois de ver os resultados mara da @marcellemazzini

👱‍♀️Comecei a usar em agosto e, desde então, cortei já 3 vezes (uma vez em fevereiro com o @filipibolchevi - profissional excelente também!) e olha, meu cabelo não é do tipo que cresce rápido, então pra mim os resultados desse sérum foram muito bons. Veja como aplico no último vídeo.

💇‍♀️Isso não é publi, podia ser, porque eu realmente amo o produto - mas é aquilo, agradeço se puder usar meu link caso queira testar, tá nos destaques Beauty!

Broadway is part of NYC's soul, and I love to chec

Broadway is part of NYC's soul, and I love to check out a musical or play whenever I can. Yesterday, we saw @sixbroadway - which is part of The Broadway Collection @broadwayinbound - I was super curious about it!

This musical brings the SIX wives of Henry VIII together to remix five hundred years of historical heartbreak into a delighted Celebration of 21st-century girl power! And did you know? SIX has won 23 awards in the 2021/2022 Broadway season.

🇧🇷 Não tem jeito - a Broadway faz parte da alma de NYC e eu amo ver um musical ou peça sempr que posso. Ontem, vimos @sixbroadway - que é parte da Broadway Collection @broadwayinbound - eu tava super curiosa a respeito!

Esse musical traz as seis esposas do rei Henry VIII juntas para cantar 500 anos de história e, ao mesmo tempo, celebrar o girl power do século 21. É um mix bem interessante. As músicas são lindas e o figurino também. Esse musical ganhou 23 prêmios na temporada 2021/2022.
